The Schottish Espagnole
or Spanish Schottische
gained popularity in France
in the early 1900's. This dance came with its own type of music
that was different than the music before. The basic steps were
2 walking steps, followed by three running steps in 8 beats of
music. The count was 1-2--3-4--1-2-3 with the music being in 4/4
time. The turns of the dance were only made on the walking steps,
never on the running steps, except in the case of the pivot, which
was a 1/4 turn or less.

The Spanish Schottische was also popular in England, under a variety
of names: such as the Maltese, Double Schottische (most popular),
Scotis Espanol and the Seven Steps or Seven Step Polka. The dance
gained some brief popularity after World War One.
